The sentence Sehsuan highlighted, to most understanding will be, "You are asking someone to takeover you and your pass if you are not free. NDP is a tight security event venue, individual pass will be issue. Just a reminder, all SAF passes are not transferrable, regardless "T" or "V" pass. If you "lend" to someone, 2 cases can be seen,
i: you have lose your pass,
ii: someone steal it from you,
of any above case, you can be charge for not reporting lose.:nono:
My 1 cent of advice, since you have so many good photographers friend, I think there is no need to broadcast yourself for not being free to take photos and ask for someone to take over you. If you are on a job, and your clients know that u ask for help in the forum, I guess your client will lose trust in you, or course, bad news spread fast....
Since You have sold off your equipment, hopefully the "organising committee" you are working with can provide you with equipment for you to enjoy taking pictures on NDP.
Enjoy the National Event.
Anyway, i have been approach by SAF Day organising committe to cover SAF Day for couple of years, I have rejected them. So it's no big deal even if u the the one and only being selected for 2006... It's good to share, but don't show off. there is a higher mountain infront of the one u are looking at.
